GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADS-919 is a high-performance, 14-bit, 2MHz sampling
A/D converter. This device accurately samples full-scale input
signals up to Nyquist frequencies with no missing codes. The
ADS-919 features outstanding dynamic performance including
a THD of –74dB.

Housed in a small 24-pin DDIP or SMT (gull-wing) package,
the functionally complete ADS-919 contains a fast-settling
sample-hold amplifier, a subranging (two-pass) A/D converter,
a precise voltage reference, timing/control logic, and error­correction circuitry. Digital input and output levels are TTL.

Requiring ±15V (or ±12V) and +5V supplies, the ADS-919
typically dissipates 1.8W (1.5W for ±12V). The unit is offered
with a unipolar input (0 to +10V). Models are available for use
in either commercial (0 to +70°C) or military (–55 to +125°C)
operating temperature ranges. Applications include radar,
sonar, spectrum analysis, and graphic/medical imaging.

Footnotes:

➀ All power supplies must be on before applying a start convert pulse. All supplies

and the clock (START CONVERT) must be present during warmup periods. The
device must be continuously converting during this time. There is a slight
degradation in performance when using ±12V supplies.

➁ See Ordering Information for availability of ±5V input range. Contact DATEL for

availability of other input voltage ranges.

➂ A 2MHz clock with a 200ns wide start convert pulse is used for all production

testing. See Timing Diagram for more details.

TECHNICAL NOTES

1. Obtaining fully specified performance from the ADS-919
requires careful attention to pc-card layout and power
supply decoupling. The device's analog and digital ground
systems are connected to each other internally. For optimal
performance, tie all ground pins (14, 19 and 23) directly to a
large analog ground plane beneath the package.

Bypass all power supplies and the REFERENCE OUTPUT
(pin 21) to ground with 4.7µF tantalum capacitors in parallel
with 0.1µF ceramic capacitors. Locate the bypass capaci­tors as close to the unit as possible. If the user-installed
offset and gain adjusting circuit shown in Figure 2 is used,
also locate it as close to the ADS-919 as possible.

2. The ADS-919 achieves its specified accuracies without the
need for external calibration. If required, the device's small

initial offset and gain errors can be reduced to zero using
the input circuit of Figure 2. When using this circuit, or any
similar offset and gain-calibration hardware, make adjust­ments following warmup. To avoid interaction, always
adjust offset before gain.

3. When operating the ADS-919 from ±12V supplies, do not
drive external circuitry with the REFERENCE OUTPUT. The
reference's accuracy and drift specifications may not be
met, and loading the circuit may cause accuracy errors
within the converter.

4. Applying a start convert pulse while a conversion is in
progress (EOC = logic "1") initiates a new and inaccurate
conversion cycle. Data for the interrupted and subsequent
conversions will be invalid.
